Mother’s Day Isn’t the Same for Everyone.

In this episode, we dive into I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy —a raw and honest story about love, control, and healing.

If you’ve ever felt that family relationships aren’t always simple… this one’s for you.

In this episode, I’m counting down the Top 5 Motivational Books that helped me get through some of the hardest moments in my life.

If you’re going through a rough patch, one of these might help you too.

Is reading in public still genuine… or just for clout?
In this episode of Ang Sarap Pala Magbasa, we talk about performative reading—and why maybe, kahit saan ka pa magbasa… it still matters.

If your mind feels heavy… baka ito na ‘yung libro na kailangan mo. The Daily Stoic became my quiet safe space during some of my toughest days.

Hindi siya loud or overwhelming—simple lang, pero ang lalim. It reminds you to slow down, to breathe, and to let go of things you can’t control.

Honestly, dito rin nagsimula ‘yung love ko for reading—during the pandemic. And out of all the books I picked up, this one really stayed with me.

It grounded me when everything felt uncertain. So if you’re feeling tired, lost, or mentally drained… try mo lang magbasa kahit isang page. Baka ito na yung clarity na hinahanap mo.

At a time when I felt lost, this book didn’t give me all the answers—but it helped me ask the right questions. Join me as I reflect on purpose, faith, and finding meaning this Holy Week.

Just attended my first book festival last March 13, 2026 — and although I had an amazing time, I have to admit… I also left with a few regrets.

From meeting authors, interviewing fellow book lovers, and discovering new stories… it was truly an experience to remember.

But what were those regrets? And what would I do differently next time?

It’s Women’s Month. And instead of celebrating perfection, let’s celebrate survival.

The Woman in Me by Britney Spears isn't just a memoir about pop stardom.

It’s about what happens when a woman’s body, money, career — even her choices — are controlled by other people… and she has to fight to get them back.

And maybe that’s what Women’s Month should really remind us:

Not that women are flawless.

But that women are allowed to fall apart and still rise.

How Women Rise by Sally Helgesen and Marshall Goldsmith isn’t about working harder — it’s about unlearning the habits that might be quietly holding you back.

In this episode, we talk about the subtle behaviors many women were taught growing up — being overly loyal, overvaluing expertise, waiting to be noticed — and why those don’t always translate to success today.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but still not moving forward, this one might hit a little too close to home.

Isang pahina, Isang realization, Isang level up!

For my second romance novel this February, I chose a story that explores love in its many different forms.

Because love isn’t just something we receive from a boyfriend or girlfriend.

Matagal na natin ‘tong naranasan—sa sarili nating tahanan.
Sa pamilya.

Sa mga taong tahimik lang na nagmamahal sa’tin.

In Before the Coffee Gets Cold, we’re reminded of something simple but powerful:

Treasure each moment.
Stop obsessing over the past.
Stop fearing the future.

Because sometimes, the only time we truly have… is now.

Malapit nanaman mag Valentine's Day, kaya naman naisipan ko na talakayin ang mga kwento patungkol sa pag-ibig.

Sisimulan ko ito ng isang kwento na hindi man Happy Ending, puno naman ito ng pag-asa, saya at pagmamahalan.
